Award winning media events business seeks a highly ambitious, driven degree educated individual to join their fast-growing events sales team in the role of Sales Development Executive.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who has a few months phone-based sales experience and is looking to join a leading media business and enter into the exciting, fast paced world of b2b event.

A key component of this role is making outreach to potential attendees (for our client’s conferences). Through a variety of outreach channels including phone, email and LinkedIn, the main objective of the role is to conduct research and explore conversations with senior level execs who could fit the client profile our client is keen to bring onboard. Once initial discussions have taken place this will then be passed over to the key account team to progress.

This role is a fantastic opportunity for an individual keen on pursuing a sales career but rather than being in a revenue generating role this position doesn’t have a revenue focus, it’s a foot in the door with scope to develop into core selling further down the line.
